Marginal Defect - Amalgam Restoration
It is the second most
common reasons
given for replacing an
amaglam restoration
Reasons for replacing an existing
restoration with defective margin- Survey of 124 dentists
It is a plaque trap, thus increasing the chance of developing
secondary caries (37%)
More likely to find secondary caries on
the cavity wall below the defect (25%)

Is this hypothesis supported by
scientific facts?
AmalgamTooth
Reasons for replacing an amalgam restoration with
defective margin
Are there direct scientific data showing a relationship between marginal defect and the development of secondary caries?
NO
Indirect/Empirical Evidence
Indirect/Empirical Evidence
We are seeing the majority of the disease in a small population of our patients; therefore not everybody is equally susceptible to the disease.
If physical barrier for oral hygiene is a problem, why do some pits and fissures never develop into lesions.
Assuming these defects on the margin of an aging restoration has been there for years; why no lesion has been developed in all these years.

AmalgamTooth
Reasons for replacing a restoration with defective
margin
There is scientific evidence showing that there is NO
relationship between marginal defect and the
presence of secondary caries on the cavity wall below the
defect
30 extracted teeth with occlusal amalgam restorations were sectioned.Caries were identified by imbibing the section in with quinoline and examined in polarized light
How should we make the decision on when to
replace??
Replacement decision should not be based on the quality of the margin
ALONE
Instead
Replacement decision should be based on risks and/or the presence of
pathology
Replacement DecisionsReplacement Decisions
Risk Factors
Risk factors related to dental caries and periodontal diseases.
Presence of pulpal pathology (e.g. sensitivity to temperature change, sweet).
Patient’s complaint (esthetic concern).

Contour
Status
Proximal contact - open, rough, location Axial contour - over/undercontour, location
Occlusion
Diagnosis is based on visual, patient’s chief complain and
radiographs
No Proximal Contact - Treatment Decision
No treatment indicated if it is physiologic (e.g. natural spacing between teeth)Replace if patient has esthetic concern or complain about food impaction, and/or in the presence of periodontal diseases.Grey area
Complaining about food impaction between 2 teeth that have no existing restoration, no evidence of periodontal diseases.Complaining about food impaction - occlusal contact OK, but gingival embrasure area open because of gingival recession.
No Proximal Contact - Treatment Options
AnteriorsDirect composite, indirect porcelain veneers, full veneer crowns. Choices depend on patient’s expectation/ability to pay and other clinical concerns (e.g. shade match problem, discolored tooth) and dentist skill.
PosteriorsDirect restoration - know the clinical and mechanical limitations of the restorative materials; direct composite restorative may be contra-indicated; deep gingival seat - clinical limitation.Indirect restoration - may be the only viable option.
ContourReplacement Decision
Rough Proximal ContactSmooth or replace only if patient
complain about not being able to floss
Proximal Contact at Non-physiologic Location
Use the same criteria as no proximal contact (no treatment indicated in the
absence of pathology, patient’s complain and esthetic concern)
ContourReplacement Decision and
OptionsAxial contour
Undercontour - e.g. porcelain fracture from PFM crown
Overcontour - e.g. buccal or lingual axial surfaces overcontour
Recontour or replace if patient has esthetic or functional concern;
presence of periodontal pathology
ContourReplacement Decision and
Options
OcclusionDx: usually based on patient’s complain
Hyper-occlusion/interference - adjust
Hypo-occlusion - replace

Tooth Fracture - AnteriorTreatment Options
Based on the size of the fracture:Small - recontour, direct compositeModerate - direct composite, composite/porcelain veneers; full crown (PFM, all porcelain…)Large - direct composite, composite/porcelain veneers, full crown, RCT/core buildup/crown
Tooth Fracture - AnteriorSmall -Treatment Options
Recontour or monitor - should be given as an option when the fracture is minor and only limit to the incisal edge area
ReasonThe most common reason for patient fracturing the incisal edge (minor) is excessive bruxism. These patients usually grind the incisal edge of their Mx anteriors to thin edges and eventually part of the enamel will fracture off. The prognosis of restoring these fractures with composite is at best questionable (due to the limitation of the mechanical properties of the material). If you are going restore these lesion, you need to inform patient that the restoration is for cosmetic purpose only.
Tooth Fracture - AnteriorModerate -Treatment OptionsDirect composite - Disadvantages: questionable prognosis due to the possibility of fracture; esthetic result? Advantages: cost, conservation of tooth structureFull crown - Disadvantages cost, not conservative; Advantages: good prognosis; good esthetic resultComposite veneers - Disadvantages: cost; no advantage over direct composite Porcelain veneers - Disadvantages: cost; Advantages good prognosis, conservation of tooth structure; good esthetic result
Tooth Fracture - AnteriorLarge -Treatment Options
Direct composite: Advantages: cost, conservation of tooth structure Disadvantages: very questionable prognosisFull crown: may not be an option due to inadequate retention and resistance formComposite/Porcelain veneers: may be your best option without involving RCTRCT/core buildup/crown: may be your best option depending on the amount of tooth structure left; Disadvantages: cost
Tooth Fracture - AnteriorLarge -Treatment Options
Why a full crown may not be an option for restoring a large anterior fracture?
Inadequate retention and resistance
Remaining tooth structure following crown prep.
Fractured Area
Tooth Fracture - PosteriorTreatment Options
Indirect restoration is the most common restorative options for restoring fractured posterior teeth. Different material/procedures are available; each with their own characteristic, advantages and disadvantages: partial veneer restorations (gold, composite, porcelain, CAD/CAM); full veneer restorations (gold, PFM, all porcelain). Choice should be based on patient’s preference (esthetic); dentist clinical judgment on what is the best restoration in a specific clinical situation.
Tooth Fracture - PosteriorTreatment Options
Repair - should no be overlooked as an option; e.g. Patient presents with fractured DL cusp on tooth #14, which already has an extensive amalgam covering all the cusps except DL cusp. Patient cannot afford to have a crown.
Tooth Fracture - PosteriorTreatment Options
Direct restoration - when indirect restoration is not an option for financial reason. Material of choice (amalgam vs composite) should be based on:
Patient’s preferences (cost, esthetic)Conservation of tooth structure Clinical expertise of the dentist to manipulate the material in a specific clinical situationClinical properties of the material that will allow the dentist to restore the tooth to a more ideal form; e.g. amalgam will have an advantage over composite to establish proximal contact
Basic Principles in Determining What
Material/Procedure To UseThe basic principle should be centered around - What
is the most conservative way to restore the tooth to its original (or as close to) biomechanical form.Some material needs bulk to resist fracture (e.g. amalgam, porcelain) - concern when dealing with a tooth with short clinical crown length.Mode of retention - mechanical vs bonding; mechanical retention need more tooth reduction - concern when dealing with a tooth with extensive structural damage.Bonding to sclerotic/secondary dentin is somewhat unpredictable Rely on bonding to provide resistance form (prevent fracture of tooth structure) is somewhat unpredictableIsolation (for bonding) may be a concern for certain patient and in the more posterior part of the mouth
Other Considerations in Restoring a Fractured Tooth
A fractured tooth or a tooth with a large existing restoration may need a foundation restoration before a crown can be fabricated.The need for a foundation restoration will depend on the depth of the pulpal floor of the existing restoration, and to a lesser extent the buccal-lingual width of the existing restoration.Retention of the crown will depend on the amount of tooth structure left around the pulpal area.
What is your treatment recommendation?
Mn first molar with an existing Class I amalgam restoration (pulpal depth of 2 mm). Fractured ML cusp from mid MMR to Li groove area at the level of the pulpal floor.

Restoration Fracture/Incomplete Fracture
Treatment decisions and Options
Treatment decisions and options similar to tooth fractureTry to identify the reason(s) for the fracture
Inadequate bulk - most common reason for amalgam restoration; need to correct the preparation if amalgam is used againExceeding the physical properties of the material - should consider alternative procedure/material
Replacement Decisions
Start out with the least invasive option; always ask yourself the
question: will the proposed option improve the health of the
tissue/oral health?
Will the new restoration improve function/esthetics?Will the new restoration addresses the chief complaint of the patient?Will the new restoration prevent further destruction of the surrounding hard/soft tissue
Decision to repair/replace a cast gold restoration with a perforation on the
occlusal surface
What rationale can you give to repair/replace a cast gold
restoration with a perforation on the occlusal surface? (Assuming there is no
complaint from patient and you cannot find a cement line)
Esthetic
Status Poor color match
Poor contour
Diagnosis Should be based on patient’s
complain
EstheticReplacement Decision
Listen to patient’s REAL concern, try to understand EXACTLY what they want and expectChoose a procedure(s) that has the potential of matching patient’s expectation (end result vs patient’s ability to pay), and satisfy our criteria of conservation and optimal oral health following the procedureImportant to understand the limitations of each of the esthetic procedure; match patient’s concern with the limitations of the procedure in mind
EstheticTreatment Options
Recontour - least invasive, limited to minor alternationBleaching - non-invasive; unpredictable result; relatively inexpensiveComposite Veneer - limited ability to mask dark stain; longevity; technically more challengingPorcelain Veneer - more invasive, limited ability to mast dark stain; more expensive; better estheticPorcelain fused to metal crown - invasive, metal collarAll Porcelain crown - most invasive; most expensive; best color
